109 Higgins - Graffiti GalleryTo January 22, 2027:
Mending With Traditon
In this multifaceted exhibition Jannuska explores Indigenous storytelling through a large mixed media comic and a variety of mixed media art pieces. ‘The Wolf and the Eagle in the Rain’ comic focuses on the personal stories of growth and perseverance of knowledge keeper Debbie Huntinghawk (Chapter 1), Julia Stoneman (Chapter 2), and land-based teacher Grace Masse (Chapter 3). The comic is heavily connected to the Brandon, MB community with Jannuska having met all three women while they were all attending Brandon University, and appearances in the comic from other local Brandon elders. The show explores themes of motherhood, community, ceremony, the Red Road, grief, and self-exploration. The comic chapters have given Jannuska the ability to create a visual language for how she views the beautiful intricacies of Indigenous spirituality and healing.

Language is Leaving Me, a solo exhibition by Nic Wilson.
Wheelchair accessible
Free to all
Language is Leaving Me encompasses the last ten years of Wilson’s writing and publishing practice. During art school, they began to make and distribute cassettes with friends and bandmates. This DIY approach to cultural production has remained essential to their work as an artist, writer, and publisher.Wilson’s writing and publishing practice is often motivated by the process of navigating and producing texts. He explores how words might reproduce or represent the layered complexities and looping structures of thought. Through encounters with subjects like mysticism, philosophy, spirit photography, and biography, Wilson questions the boundaries of art, criticism, theory, and literature as well as those of looking, seeing, sensing, and reading.
